AWS Pass traffic from NLB to an ALB?


I am trying to pass incoming traffic from amazon's Network Load Balancer to Application Load Balancer, I am using NLB since it has an Elastic IP attachment and I want it to serve as a proxy for the ALB. is that even possible?


Solution

  • As of 27th September 2021, AWS launched Application Load Balancer(ALB)-type target groups for Network Load Balancer (NLB). With this launch, you can register ALB as a target of NLB to forward traffic from NLB to ALB without needing to actively manage ALB IP address changes through Lambda.
